umraan syed - glorious lyrics

oh glorious day
godspeed, got speed
focusing on things to be me
u m r double a n, s y e d
in sha allah, best you’ll ever see
it was through calamity
god spoke to me
i once lost myself
like in 7th grade
donnie pressed on his temples
and made himself seize
he did it comically
though he was relieved
that i would never leave
point of this story
emotionally, i lost myself
but who was there for me?
yes
surrounded by a family tree
i was loved and raised to be healthy
but somewhere deep inside of me
i knew i wasn’t happy
on this album you will see
themes of individuality
learning to be free
asking who are we so please tell me
am i alone in these crises?
i don’t wanna be so
stick a knife in me
anything to stop all these
thoughts and feelings terrorizing me
into oblivion
oh glorious day
skies might be grey
but don’t go away
and i came to stay
never go away never go away
i’ll never go away
even when the skies rain
blood from the innocents
raising my hands to pray
for death to the tyrants
and spend night and day
feeding those who lay awake
and question their significance

it gets late so early these days
take time to think a little
sit with yourself and ask
is this the life you’re meant to riddle?
a pedigree of abnormality
comp-ssion leads me
to the depths of infinity
‘tween dreams and reality
a cold soul when solo
traveled places so low
even an animal
wouldn’t dare go below, no
tried a female’s approach
wasn’t successful
david bow, come back
the world needs to know, yo
like the lynchings in the south
disposing half a generation
all the lost souls, artists, visionaries
we can never celebrate them
been drowning
finally lift my head above the water
now the water is starting to boil
i’m suffocating
i swear
life is tryin to k!ll me from every angle
crushing down like russian clowns
breaking down the american people
what is this land we put our everything into?
to me, this country
is a utopia of thoughts and dreams
the belief that reality
is what you will it to be
grasp opportunity
together we’re severely flawed
starts with the individual
never let the world ridicule and break you
the harshest ones be the ones
to never dedicate and
create something new

glorious

i admit i had my moments
of doubting and lying
trying desperately to be
somebody i could’ve looked up to
when the quiet comes you
you ask yourself
“what are we put on this earth to do?”
psychedelics helping me
to reach for the truth
one day, i’ll sit my son down
ask him how he wants to change the world
“positively, every chance i get
the opportunity to”
watch me defeat the rest
maybe not in numbers
or the fattest checks
but surely with the p-ssionate flows
no ghostwriter could possibly teach you
you see it in the sk!ll
with my pen
arrangements musically above you
in high school
all i wanted to do
was discover my sk!lls and
connect with people
skipping cl-ss
puffing gr-ss
eating molly like she a nympho
it was the days of the mints
originally and hard pressed
don’t need a reagent to tell you
16 in chicago
rollin on buddhas
outta the wilt
with the rest of the crew
in a way, that’s where it all began
now tell me
how it all started for you
